Robbie Williams (born Robert Peter Williams on February 13, 1974 in Stoke-on-Trent) is a Grammy Award-nominated, 15 time BRIT Award-winning English singer-songwriter. His career started as a member of the pop band Take That in 1990, which he left in 1995 after selling 25 million records, to begin his solo career.[1]

Since then, Robbie Williams has sold more albums in the United Kingdom than any other British solo artist in history.[2] His sales stand at over 50 million worldwide.[3] [4] He has also sold an estimated 15 million singles.[5]This brings his total to almost 70 million records.[6]

Williams entered in the The Guinness Book of World Records when he announced his World Tour for 2006, selling 1.6 million tickets in one single day.[7]

In the United Kingdom alone he has sold nearly 5.5 million million singles and about three times that many albums. He appears in the list of the all-time Top 100 biggest selling albums in the United Kingom six times, more than any other person or group, and has been the recipient of many awards — including more BRIT and ECHO Awards than any other artist in history. It is also estimated he is currently the best selling non-latino artist in Latin America at the moment, as well as the best selling international artist outside North American this century.[8]

He is currently the best selling male artist in the world, for the period 1998-2007, according to the United World Chart, and the third artist overall behind Madonna and Britney Spears.[9]

Main article: Take That
Williams' early pop career started with the successful pop band Take That. The band was formed in 1990 in United Kingdom, they scored ten number-one hits in the country (seven of them when Williams was in the band, one without him before they split and two since they reformed again as a four piece in 2006). Their popularity led to a succession of similar bands in the UK.


By 1995, Williams who had been growing frustrated with his life in Take That, infamously went partying with Oasis at Glastonbury and then left the band.[10] After leaving the band in 1995, the last Take That album Nobody Else was re-issued in some markets excluding some vocals by Williams, most notably a new recording of "Love Aint Here Anymore". He didn't actually take any lead vocals on this album - band members later blamed this on his "lack of interest and commitment" in the recording of the album.


In November 2005, ITV1 screened a documentary on Take That, including the reasons behind Williams' departure. This documentary contained interviews with Williams and his former fellow band members. Williams declined the offer to reunite with the band, but spoke to them via a pre-recorded video message.


After the band's comeback tour around the United Kingdom (without Williams), Robbie performed the song "Back For Good" in his own tour around the world in 2006. Las Vegas Disc Jockey is now a wedding reception and corporate events DJ. Call John Dote' at (702) 649-6026 or email at jodo777d@aol.com for your upcoming event in Las Vegas.
